Dog World, March, 1995, (16) states: «Immune — suppressant viruses of the retrovirus and parvovirus classes have recently been implicated as causes of
bone marrow failure, immune - mediated blood
diseases, haematologic malignancies (lymphoma and leukemia), dysregulation of humoral and cell - mediated immunity, organ failure (liver, kidney) and autoimmune endocrine disorders — especially of the thyroid gland (thyroiditis), adrenal gland (Addison's
disease) and pancreas (diabetes).
As
in humans, the presence of bacteria causes bad breath (bacteria stinks), and the accumulation of tartar causes irritation and inflammation to the gums around the
dog's teeth (gingivitis, under the form of red, swollen gums), which
in turn may lead to periodontal
disease (the loss of the connective tissue fibers, ligaments and
bone surrounding the teeth and responsible for supporting them) and eventually tooth loss due to gradual loss of supporting structure — see photo, something known as gingival recession.
Furthermore, the kibble or soft food that's specifically formulated for large breeds may contain ingredients that help to prevent health conditions that are common
